Get a group of friends to fire questions about your story, or a specific character, so that you have to answer them off the top of your head. You will think so fast to explain (or defend) you'll even make up information that hasn't happened yet. The result makes your story clearer to you, and you will be surprised how relevant some of the new input is.
